Xslt Transformation getting < and >

[Guest]

I am converting a web deployment system from asp to aspx. The old system used the MSXML2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument and did a .transformNode. The .Net system uses XslTransform() and does a .Transform. My problem is that the resulting HTML page is slightly different in that the does not convert the
&lt; and &gt; to < and > in the HTML

Is there a switch or parameter in the Transform or the XslTransform that will cause the proper escaping

Thanks

Hi,

From your description, you are using the .net's XslTransform class to
transform xml document into html and find that some datas such as &lt; and
&gt; won't be convert to the < and > which is different from the MSXML2's
transform behavior ,yes?

Based on my research, when using the XslTransform.Transform method to
transform document, the result will different when we use a
XmlReader/XmlWriter or a Stream as the output. There is a certain reference
in MSDN:

#Outputs from an XslTransform
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/cpguide/html/cpconinputsoutputstoxsl
transform.asp?frame=true

And here is a former thread discussing on the same problem:
